Pain nourishes courage. You can't be brave if you've only had wonderful things happen to you.
--Mary Tyler Moore

When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look again.

Always remember the compliments you received.
Forget the rude remarks.

Never frown, you never know who might be noticing your smile.

A smile is the lighting system of the face, the cooling system of the head and the heating system of the heart.
--Unknown

Love is patient, Love is kind,
It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud, It is not rude,
It is not self-seeking,
It is not easily angered,
It keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil,
but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends.
Love never fails.
Corinthians 13 : 4 – 8

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.
Franklin D. Roosevelt

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway.
--Mother Teresa

'Tis better to have love and lost,
than never to have loved at all.
- Samuel Butler

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
- Dylan Thomas

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both and be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth; then took the other, just as fair, and having perhaps the better claim,
because it was grassy and wanted wear; though as for that the passing there had worn
them really about the same, and both that morning equally lay in leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, i kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh somewhere ages
and ages hence;
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by,
and that has made all the difference. --- By Robert Frost
